The eight-headed Void Beast believed that their leader’s strength was formidable enough to suppress these Human Race Cultivators, and they didn’t need to intervene.

But what about the reality?

Lu Ping utilized the Ten Thousand Spirits Map, and then performed the Spirit Manipulation Technique recorded within, uttering mystical and ancient incantations to exert the corresponding Spirit Manipulation Technique on the leader Void Beast.

This Spirit Manipulation Technique is a compilation of the Ten Thousand Spirits Race’s innate talents, recorded in the Ten Thousand Spirits Map after field tests.

By following the recording method in the Ten Thousand Spirits Map, Lu Ping could unveil the Spirit Manipulation Technique.

As the Spirit Manipulation Technique was executed, the golden characters in the air grew even more imposing, all rushing toward the leader Void Beast.

"What kind of technique is this?"

Seeing Lu Ping display such a technique, Jiuhua True Monarch’s expression tensed. His gaze was fixed on those golden characters encircling the leader Void Beast, sensing a hidden prowess within this technique.

Observing the leader Void Beast, it seemed to be restrained by this power, with golden characters constantly circling around it, emitting a mysterious and ancient aura, giving the impression that divinities were whispering.

"Lu Daoist seems like he could suppress the Void Beast."

Jiuhua True Monarch was full of curiosity, closely observing Lu Ping’s methods and techniques. It didn’t appear like a deadly move, recalling the words "Spirit Manipulation" Lu Ping had uttered earlier.

Given the situation, it was evident that he intended to control and suppress the Void Beast.

He had interacted with several Beast Elders from the Beast Taming Sect, understanding what the term "Spirit Manipulation" implied.

Beside him, Xu Dezhi and Liu Taixuan quietly watched Lu Ping’s actions, ready to assist if anything went awry.

Regarding Lu Ping, they felt he was more than what he appeared, suspecting he had hidden techniques yet to be revealed.

Whoosh.

The golden characters continuously displayed the power of Spirit Manipulation, affecting the leader Void Beast, making it realize its own strength was being suppressed. It tried to resist and dissolve this power, but found it futile.

Let alone clearing out Lu Ping and the five others; now, even advancing to attack Lu Ping seemed exceedingly difficult.

Witnessing the effect, Lu Ping increased the power output, amplifying the might of the Spirit Manipulation Technique.

Under the scrutiny of several individuals, the leader Void Beast immediately crouched onto the ground, shedding its previous indifference and arrogance, resembling more of a meek sheep, devoid of attack power.

Its entire magical power was shackled by golden restraints, unable to break free, leaving it both astonished and deeply shocked.

The Human Race Cultivator before him, what kind of Divine Techniques had he unleashed to render it this way?

A series of questioning words escaped from its mouth. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

"It asks, what did you do to it?"

The Void Celestial Sword Spirit once again served as a translator.

"Since you seek to clear us out, we naturally won’t wait to be slaughtered."

Lu Ping responded, looking exceedingly calm, as though dealing with a Low-tier Creature.

The leader Void Beast’s eyes effused Black Radiance, attempting to struggle once more, only to find it still ineffective.

Its own power, mysteriously restrained, rendered it impotent’s leaving it panicked.

Despite its Fourth-Layer Nascent Soul strength, it was fighting another Nascent Soul Stage cultivator like Lu Ping. Strangely, it quickly fell into disadvantage, its cultivation seemingly locked down, highlighting a terrifying disparity.

It seemed rather like prey, controlled by Lu Ping.

A series of whimpers ensued, and this time, the leader Void Beast looked towards the surrounding eight-headed Void Beasts, beckoning them to act.

"If you harbor thoughts of killing us again, I can eliminate you now!"

Lu Ping’s expression was cold, noticing the leader Void Beast’s gesture, he immediately reprimanded sternly.

This reprimand surprised Zhang Tianqun and the others, realizing Lu Ping possessed such means.

Meanwhile, including the leader Void Beast, the surrounding eight-headed Void Beasts all focused their gaze on Lu Ping.

Lu Ping was stared down by nine Void Beasts, yet his face remained as calm as an ancient well with no ripples.

"I’m not trying to scare you; you can feel for yourself now. Can you make a move on me?"

"I can suppress you, command your magical power to remain unutilized, let you crawl, and tackle several of your kindred with ease."

Lu Ping continued, persistently executing the Spirit Manipulation Technique, with the Ten Thousand Spirits Map hovering before him, emitting a faint golden glow, appearing extraordinary.

The appearance of this Ten Thousand Spirits Map had long since drawn the attention of Zhang Tianqun and the others, their gaze fixated on the map.

Now, seeing the unusual reaction from the leader Void Beast, they could surmise that Lu Ping had a way to handle these Void Beasts.

Lu Ping’s warning quickly bore fruit.

The leader Void Beast surprisingly halted any further action, whispered a few words to the surrounding eight-headed Void Beasts, and they all withdrew their aggressive gestures, glancing at each other, staying in place.

It attempted to stand, but remained unsuccessful.

"No need to waste effort, as I said, I can suppress you."

Lu Ping’s voice echoed, tinged with a trace of coldness.

"If I wanted to kill you, it would only take a thought."

"This is not an empty threat, feel it for yourself!"

Once the words fell, Lu Ping’s eyes shone with divine brilliance, observing the leader Void Beast as he spoke again: "Do you still want to clear us out now?"

Although spoken in a seemingly bland tone, the killing intent was utterly undisguised.

Especially when uttering the word "clear," at that moment, everyone felt that Lu Ping would unleash unparalleled might to eliminate the Void Beasts here.

Zhang Tianqun and four others remained silent, realizing Lu Ping was decidedly not someone to provoke, certainly possessing more techniques.

This was merely one method he’s demonstrated.

This time, the leader Void Beast completely abandoned thoughts of fighting, crouching down towards Lu Ping, sensing the aura emitting from Lu Ping akin to an Ancient True Dragon of celestial majesty, rather than a Human Race Cultivator.

It uttered a few words, with the Void Celestial Sword Spirit translating.

"It admits it’s not your opponent, won’t attempt to clear you out. You can leave now."

"Letting us leave now, you thought we were easy to bully before."

Lu Ping smiled slightly, but the smile wasn’t as benign when seen through the eyes of the Void Beasts.

"What do you want?"

The Void Celestial Sword Spirit spoke up.
